## The prompt

```text
Rewrite the text in my Modern Cart side cart so it sounds like my store. Read five of my best selling WooCommerce products to learn how we talk to customers. Read my Modern Cart cart settings and list every text label: headings, buttons, placeholders, success messages and the free shipping bar message. Write a new version of each one, short and clear. Show me the old and new text side by side and run the change as a dry run. Ask me to confirm before you save anything.
```

## What happens when you paste it

You: Rewrite the text in my Modern Cart side cart so it sounds like my store…

Assistant: Your products talk to customers in a warm, plain voice. The cart still uses 9 default labels, such as Your Cart, Checkout Now and Have a coupon? Calling: `woocommerce/products-query`, `moderncart/get-settings`, `moderncart/update-settings`.

Assistant: This will make changes in WooCommerce. Do you want me to go ahead?

Assistant: New text ready for 9 labels, for example Your Cart becomes Your Bag, Checkout Now becomes Head to Checkout, and the bar reads Only $12 to go for free shipping. Reply yes and I will save them.
